Koniec komunizmu w Albanii - Redux
The Postblloku Checkpoint Monument in Boulevard Deshmoret e Kombit in Tirana is the Memorial to Communist Isolation, commemorating the country's political prisoner under Hoxha regime. Co-created by the writer and former dissident Fatos Lubonja and the artist Ardian Isufi, the monument is made up of concrete supports from Spa? labour camp and a section of the Berlin Wall from Postdamer Platz. Thirty years have passed since the end of the Communism Era in Albania in 1990-1991. The country has been closed to any contact with the outside world for more than 45 years. As a symbol of the ideological paranoia of its dictator Enver Hoxha, every corner of the country has been covered by oval shaped Bunkers of different dimensions and use, to remind the population that they were constantly in danger and at any time they could be attacked by foreign enemies. Today the two main bunkers in the capital Tirana has been transformed in an art museum, called Bunk'Art. With the sounds and lights of the time, the exhibitions and artistic works give a sense of the constant fear and perceived need of defense themselves. Rehabilitated and restored for tourism purpose, the Bunk'Art's visitor experiments that feeling of oppression, looking forward to finish the tour to breath some air outside. An outside of the cruel history which is still to be remembered. Text by Marta Bellingreri
